I may have posted this before but it's definitely true for me.

rhu weekend conventions to discuss with like-minded people....has a familiar ring to it...

KellyHb · 31/08/2015 15:27

Wow just watched Taylor Swift's new video for her song 'Wildest Dreams' and a part of it is supposed to look like the desert with wild animals etc: and it completely reminded me of pix's Op Nyota with Molly and CJ.

Unless I'm too obsessed with this couple and you would think it doesn't remind you at all but give it a watch, see what you think. Grin

Thanks for the stats Intel rhu. I think with my increasing sporadic posting, stats on me would probably say, you taking the mick? Confused

pixieg1rl · 31/08/2015 15:44

You need to watch This Wild Life at 7 on BBC2 Kelly (if you can stand Saba Douglas Hamilton that is), Nyota was set around there.

I shall be green with envy watching it on catch up later.

KellyHb · 31/08/2015 15:55

I'll put on to record for later pix. How was your holiday? Do you feel rested apart from all the washing you're having to do?

Sorry about your settee stain Jen. Luckily enough, mine have mostly gone onto the potty or toilet on time but I was thinking a while ago about getting a fabric settee but I thought knowing what my two are like, I'd better wait. Is your youngest starting school nursery this year?

BK, loved your bit of FF writing there earlier. You had me imagining CJ after just a few words. You should give writing a go if you ever want to. Glad you had a good time though Smile

KellyHb · 31/08/2015 16:16

Ahh just watching the loveliness again of Scott Eastwood (Clint's son) flying in a biplane over some bison. Lucky Taylor. Even though it is probably green screen.

Nickel45 · 31/08/2015 16:44

DH had to come with us (given he had 6 child free days in the last 8). Tbh I hadnt actually noticed he had done the hoovering! Probably his way of highlighting that he had. Still, had a lovely time at the fayre. Now watching the exciting new film ... Curious George., Return to the Jungle!!!

Rhubarb01 · 31/08/2015 16:48

Wow Kelly just took a look at that video and boy is young Scott the image of his daddy although a little broader in build. It's very 'Out of Africa' isn't it but nice storyline. Plenty of action for Taylor too. Was that lion real? Is Scott acting in anything I hadn't heard of him before.

moojangles · 31/08/2015 16:52

He was in The Longest RideGrin. Watched it on the flight home, easy on the eye

moojangles · 31/08/2015 16:57

Just stopped raining here, think the entire town was out walking/jogging/cycling over the park.
So don't want to go back to work, but be more enthusiastic if we weren't starting with 2 days of INSET and my RL OG fan friend has left & 2 other closest friends/colleagues are on maternity leaveSad
jen 1001 stain remover spray is excellent-worked wonders on stains left my old incontinent dog, steam cleaner excellent too.

Dizzydots · 31/08/2015 16:59

Snap mooj. Very easy on the eye. In fact hadn't seen him before and immediately googled once landed!

moojangles · 31/08/2015 17:00

Ditto dizzy!

Dizzydots · 31/08/2015 17:02

Thanks for the reminder kel

Ilovelblue · 31/08/2015 17:07

Just come back from a walk - got pretty wet but it was either that or be tempted to sit in front of the TV and probably go to sleep!

Googled Scott Eastwood - very easy on the eye indeed.

mooj I have a similar problem with friends/close colleagues at work leaving - you know, the sort you could sound off to or ask for advice knowing it wouldn't go any further. Feel pretty fed up with work to be quite honest at the moment.

moojangles · 31/08/2015 17:13

I am dreading it that aspect of it ilove, knowing there is someone who has your back makes a huge difference.
Thanks for the pic dizzy

Ilovelblue · 31/08/2015 17:20

Strangely perhaps, two of my confidantes were men. Not that you can't be friends with men of course but I guess it's more usual to have a moan and whinge with your female colleagues? I need to line some other confidantes up to fill their shoes perhaps.

KellyHb · 31/08/2015 17:43

Glad you liked the video rhu. I think the animals were real and they shot on location somewhere. I just totally imagined that as CJ and Molly.

Yip dizzy & mooj Scott was all kinds of wonderful in The Longest Ride. Would be liked more naked scenes but you can't have everything. Watching that film, I was too entranced with him to eat my Pick 'n' Mix. SE could dip his hand in my chocolate raisins any time he wants. Wink

moojangles · 31/08/2015 17:44

I do both, as it were! I will be treading wearily for a bit but I can always hide in my office if I need to! Had one of those years last year where you find out who your true friends are at work- sounds far more sinister than it was but it was a tough one.
nickel maybe dh needs to de hoovering regularly to build up relevant muscle strength?!

pixieg1rl · 31/08/2015 19:04

I don't understand tumblr, but I was doing some ...ahem...research and came across this thehopelesslongingoftheday.tumblr.com/post/105602650076/captain-james-ben-aldridge-2015-calendar

I may need to print out the next 4 months to help see me through to the end of the year.

Richtea19 · 31/08/2015 19:19

pixie I love the calendar link, I think I will be downloading that too!

Still raining here, just finished a lovely roast dinner and now ready for a snooze! Doesn't look like much on telly tonight either.

Onlygirljen · 31/08/2015 19:45

That calendar is brilliant, what a good find.

Couch update - patch test with the steam cleaner didn't look too good (thanks for the tip to do the patch test!). Stain remover has lifted it a bit, now I need to find something to fix the smell Confused. Thanks everyone for the tips. He had a very good potty day besides that one incident, maybe things are looking up. kelly yes he starts school nursery next month after he turns 3, which is why I'm trying to crack it by then.

Good luck to all the teachers, school kids and frantically labelling parents. The schools all went back up here a few weeks ago, so we're beginning to get into some kind of routine again.

I'm getting my bag ready for London work trip later in the week, plenty of stretchy material so I can launch into gorilla grip on any BA sightings Grin

moojangles · 31/08/2015 19:47

Well done pixie

Ilovelblue · 31/08/2015 19:51

Are you sure ice doesn't have something to do with that calendar? She did print one out for work I think.....

pixieg1rl · 31/08/2015 20:17

Goodness, it's a shame I missed February

icemistOBE · 31/08/2015 20:24

Not me. Buts a great calendar.
